>>19135147Ah so thats the plan corganites were talking aboutInterresting
>>19135147God, I love feet
>>19135147Hope to see him in the VIP section doing rails with James Mitchell.
>>19135147So far he's mentioned some plot points or segments he was so excited about >drugs tests>concussion protocol>me too accusationThese are the storylines that will save NWA
>>19135147So NWA will be getting more weekly viewers than AEW in a few months right?
>>19135147excuse the fuck me, but didn't he say he was gonna stop talking about wrestling when this year ended?
>>19135171bro stop i'm beggin ya bro stop it bro don't look there wtf bro
>>19135186Think of the Su-werve, Buh-ro!
>>19135147Guess he never got that job in hollywood he wanted writing real shows instead of lame ass wrestling
Time travel, bro. The champ builds a time machine, bro, and he goes back to the summer of 1992 to stop a brutal assault before it takes place, forever changing the landscape of professional wrestling. Bro.
>>19135147NWA has gone insane
>>19135147must be torture to know that you don't even like wrestling but your entire life for the past 30 years has revolved around it and you can't get a job in anything else
kino i might give it a shot just to see the car wreck
I don't watch wrestling anymore but I will actually watch nwa now. wrestling is back
>>19135312This isn't your diary. Stop talking to yourself.
Can you call it crash tv when you aren't broadcast anywhere?
>>19135186Sounds more entertaining than every other wrestling promotion currently
>>19135312He did like wrestling, he had a local radio talk show about wrestling before he worked for WWF.
>>19135356Same. Good or bad, Russo is always kino
>>19135405He decided he hated wrestling right around the same time that wrestling decided they hated employing him.
>The first nine shows I wrote - first of all, somebody gets concussed and we talk about concussion protocol. Number two, we drug test (in storyline). Not only that bro but the guy administering the test literally stands next to the stall while the wrestler is in there to make sure they're not using somebody else's piss. And also a female wrestler in danger of losing power, pulls the #MeToo card. All in the first nine shows -Russo via Sportskeeda
I told you all to TRUST THE PLAN. Big Tunes Billy and Vince Russo are going to make wrestling great again. Get ready for a new boom period and viagra on a pole matches in front of 90,000 screaming fans in the pontiac skydome brother.
if this really is true, cornette is going to flip his fucking wig
>>19135147this is actually very kind of small dimes william giving him a job since russo has fallen on hard times. respect
>>19135452legendary. the maestro is back
I'll give it a year until he gets fired.
>>19135228Yeah,podcast is ending and he doesnt wanna give marks info on the silver platter
>>19135292Hot damn pal,how did you know ?Is it possible to learn arts of kwabjutsu and predict the digits ?
>>19135452If he books a big blonde dude getting raped in the alleyway I will buy all smashing pumpkins albums and a nwa t shirt
>>19135147DIMESTrust the fucking plan.
>>19135147BASED, kino is back bros
>>19135228He said he Will stop watching raw and SmackDown
>>19135147Fine lil footslutbunny
Where do I even watch NWA?
>>19137719theyre on roku, it doesnt cost anything and you dont even have to create an account. theres links to both their channels on nationalwrestlingalliance.com under the "watch nwa" tab.
I can't even describe how happy I am to hear about this. i don't know if russo will be a success, but i know he's definitely going to make things interesting. this might be just what the NWA needs. and if not, it should at least be a very amusing ride.
He'll put the title back on Brodus Clay as a rib.
>>19135302Gone?
thank fuck a promotion finally hired this faggot again so all you contrarians can remember why he's been out of the biz since OG TNA died>inb4 go to bed jim
>>19135302???
>>19138023Shouldn't you be prepping the bull for your fat witch wife, Jim?
>>19135186At least he has something in mind.
the age of emperor billicus is nearly upon us.
>>19138023hahaha guess what cornette mark? I got tired of you complaining in the Powerrr gamethreads, so I called up Big Tunes Billy and convinced him to hire Vince Russo. And yes, I did it just to piss you off.
Aaaand I will now watch your show
unironically why would you do this
>>19138220excellent, gamethreads are every tuesday at 8.
>>19138257It's the most anyone has been talking about NWA in a while
>>19138257Desperation
>>19138257Unironically why not, you fucking little faggot?Whatever Russo shits out will be 100% more palatable and interesting than SlopDown and gaydubya. Professional Wrestling has a problem. Russo is coming in with solutions, bro.
>>19138361this, someone needs to shake the business up and russo is just the guy to do it.
>>19138352I doubt that because the NWA is doing much better lately. Attendance has been quite solid.
>>19138257Sunken ships can't go deeper
>>19135147One of the grimmest sentences I've ever read in my entire life
>>19138043Qrd?
This is it. This is what give Cornette his massive heart attack after over 5 decades of Wendy's cheeseburgers. His beloved NWA handing over the reins to his mortal enemy. Vinny Ru won kek
Wwe is so bad is bad at least with vinnie ru we get good stuff and stuff so bad is good, no in between
>>19135292KWAB
>>19139145in 2023, the NWA did a halloween PPV in which James Mitchell (sinister minister from ECW) was seen snorting coke with his minions. It wasn't real, it was kayfabe and the coke was apparently fake as well. But some people got all mad and started clutching their pearls about it.
>>19135147BIG TUNES BILLY BRINGING KINO BACK
This is the same promotion that fired Corny for racism? That doesn't make much sense
>>19138257big tunes has CTE
>>19139423How the fuck would he get CTE?He's a musician
>>19139344oh that's the NWA cocaine thing? i thought that cokane (the white kane that throws bricks of coke at people) wrestled in NWA and that got them in trouble. that makes more sense.
>>19139432
so when vinny ru fucks this up just like he's fucked up every other chance that's been given to him what will the excuse be?
>>19139433No Cokane is a JCW guy but that does bring up a good point. people have done cocaine spots before and it never really stirred up any controversy, but for some reason they made a huge uproar when the NWA does it.
>>19135452None of this sounds as ridiculous as his 90s shows, which actually makes me curious how things go.
>>19138257russo is corgan's friend and hard up for money. that's it. it's not even about wrestling really billy is just helping him out
>>19139673im hoping that billy will do like vince did and filter out russo's worst ideas while keeping the good ones. the guy is very creative but i do think he needs a filter.
>>19139673We gonna see trump expy wrestle obama expy in noose on a pole matchEnds with run in with heidenreich who is managed by hitlers decapitated head
>>19138361you are seething bro
Are there any whores in NWA worth putting in a bra and panties match?
>>19139966yes
>>19139966natalia markova, i would absolutely pay to see her in a match like that
>>19139992ah you beat me to the post and the digits. well played sir.
>>19139698Didn't Corgan fire all his band mates and replace them with H1B slaves? I wonder if they watch him piss away money on shit like this and feel bad.
>>19140269I have investigated this, and I'm afraid you were misinformed. The current lineup of the smashing pumpins is Billy Corgan, Jimmy Chamberlin and James Iha, and none of them are immigrants. Iha is Japanese but he was born in Chicago. As you can see here, he didn't fire his whole band at any point either. so I must inform you that this rumor is false, good sir.
Can’t wait for schizo trashy kino
>>19135228THE SWERVEMEISTER SWERVES AGAIN!
>>19139635By astonishing coincidence this is when NWA looked like it was headed for a TV deal and this "story" was chirped about by twitter accounts who LOVE WWE
>>19135147Based bro
>TNA>AAA>NWAHow are the shittiest promotions all finding ways to get even worse in 2025? What's GCW planning?
predictions:>Natalia Markova will be doing pudding matches and bra-and-panty matches with both the Kenzie sisters>Thrillbilly and the Southern 6 will become straight up racists and start lynching all the black wrestlers>Thom Latimer's character will be turned into a devil worshipper who sacrifices virgins and drinks the blood of goats>Big Strong Mims will be rebranded with a pimp gimmick, maybe change his name to "Pimp Hand Mims" or something like that.>EC3 will get a worked shoot storyline where everyone is trying to get him off steroids>Slade will be revealed as a former campus rapist who used his amateur wrestling skills to molest unsuspecting young ladies>Alex Hammerstone will be rebranded with a sleazy pornstar gimmick and Val Venis will be hired as his manager. His promos will mostly consist of him making jokes comparing his dick to hammers and/or stones.
>>19140970true, and NXT got that tv deal on the CW shortly after that. So yeah WWE probably used that coke spot as an excuse to sabotage their deal.
>>19135147Unfathomably based.
>>19135292Oh my
>>19141043Stop selling me the show Vince, I said I'd already watch it.
Probably not many people know or remember, Russo used to book for his local indie fed in Denver about 7-8 years ago. He streamed on twitch sometimes making promo videos with some of the guys and basically all he'd say was something like "just say it how you feel it, bro". I don't know if he still has the kino in him
>>19135228He implies he will watch clips on social media instead of full episodes
>>19135228he said once he hits 60 he is done with wrestling with will focus on his family time (and painting lol). Well he obviously didn't since he realized there is still money in this and people would still pay him to review etc. And his cope nowadays is that he only said that in moment of anger and frustration because of how bad was RAW at the time and that he had to watch it.
>>19140007>>19139992This is Big Tunes Billy's type?
>>19135147>Listen, I hear you, I hear you, and I agree. The show sucked when I was I was the quote unquote "head writer." Understand that I walked into that office every GD day and said as much. The powers that be limited what I could do, bro, so any criticism of my work with the NWA should be directed at them. I begged. I pleaded. I TRIED. But they refused to produce the show that I had written for them, their promotion failed because of it, and my reputation took an undeserved hit. There's only so much I can do when I'm shackled by ownership.I haven't listened to anything Russo has said in about a decade. The above greentext is a paraphrase summary of the same bullshit lie he pedals to explain away why WCW and TNA were such colossal failures when he was given full creative control over all programming. The present-day NWA is only valuable to the wrestling industry inasmuch as it serves as a place where performers with inborn potential can figure out a way to develop their talents and get signed to one of the mainstream promotions. Russo will smother every one of these talents in order to use them as extras in a series of skits that make no sense. Then whatever small following the NWA has will disappear.
>>19139698How is he broke? He made like 2 millions from wwe and wcw stint
>>19141440TNA had his biggest ratings with Russo kino and wcw numbers went Up for the short 3 months he was in complete control
>>19135147I heard him say that he was writing 90 minute shows, NWA Power is 60So I don't know what promotion has a 90 minute TV show but it isn't the NWA
>>19141680Refresh my memory. Wasn't the biggest rating that Impact ever pulled their debut Monday night show opposite RAW? If so, Hogan deserves that small amount of credit. Impact was never relevant before or after that night, so there isn't much we can praise Russo for there. But if you can name two or three things he did that showed some promise of bringing in new viewers, I'll give them to you.What was the peak of his 3 months with complete control over WCW? The brief curiosity generated by the Bash at the Beach controversy? IIRC the ratings essentially flatlined after his decisions to become World Champion himself (with his bicycle helmet) and also the David Arquette mess. That was when WCW executives realized that he's catastrophically incompetent and cut their losses with him.
>>19141680>TNA had his biggest ratings with Russo kinoAnd they're still trying to draw a house like The Young Bucks did with their YouTube vlog
>>19141969Don't forget house shows absolutely tanked during the Nash-Russo booking eras
>>19141440>The present-day NWA is only valuable to the wrestling industry inasmuch as it serves as a place where performers with inborn potential can figure out a way to develop their talents and get signed to one of the mainstream promotions.Fuck you faggot. and fuck your "mainstream promotions" too.
>>19142006>DESPITE ALL MY RAGE
>>19141440right now im taking a great big nasty SPRAYING shit and I have more respect for this shit than I have for your post. at least my shit doesn't try to hide the fact that it's shit.
>>19141185Yeah that was Rocky Mountain Pro, I used to watch the livestreamed shows back then and they weren't that good but maybe he just needed better talent to work with his stuff
>>19142026Post proof
>>19142015you are one of those fags who only cares about two promotions and so im one of those CHADs who doesn't care what you've got to say.
>>19142036if you insist hahahah
>>19142105kys rheafag
As long as there are some top shelf slutty storylines with Natalie Markova I'm down.
>>19142105That isn't your shit. You're as phony as the conman Vince Russo and your image will now serve as a symbol of the NWA's immediate future.
>>19142199alright by all means go around the board showing everyone that image and telling them all about what happened itt. that should be pretty amusing lol. yes that isn't really my shit, I chose to spare everyone the disgusting sight of the horrible SPRAYING shit that I actually took because I'm just a nice guy like that.
>>19135826I've really wanted to watch trashy wrestling for a while now so this is good news to me but they have to figure out the broadcasting situation, their roku deal is only for the US and canada and the show's so shit that nobody even pirates it.
>>19139515they're making the same mistake as wcw and tna of making him the head writer instead of making him the ideas guy and filtering whatever he comes up with through an actual booker.
imagine cornette's seethe!!!!1
>>19142455Human beings are on a loop.
>>19135147I know this is a xitter meme, but Russo writing for a wrestling show is a shoot recession indicator
Holy fucking based. I probably need to get a VPN to watch it
>>19143236it's either going to be total shit or the best thing ever. should be interesting either way.
>>19141043>>Natalia Markova will be doing pudding matches and bra-and-panty matches with both the Kenzie sistersThat would outdraw AEW and possibly WWE
>>19142455What could possibly go wrong?
>>19135147BASED BRO
Will Cornette show up to a live show and blow Russo's head off finally?
>>19144554Cornette hasn't left his man cave in fear of being assassinated due to threatening to kill Trump
Shit. people chanting Fire Russo will have a point
>>19135186he said he wrote the first 9 episodes and all this happens within those 9 episodes lmao. this shit is gonna be insane
